Updates and Whatnot

It seems like not much has been going on, but maybe a lot has. The year wasn't off to the best start, as one of my friends passed away, and his funeral was the same day that my own brother died three years ago. I went to Farmington for the services, which was basically like an out of body experience, going back to my hometown, seeing a couple of high school/college friends, and sleeping in the house I lived in for most of my teen years.

Death trips aside, I've been staying busy at Landlocked, bartending, making the desserts, planning killer beer and wine dinners, etc. Business seems pretty good despite this slow season and the economy and I'm just having fun, doing nothing with my degrees, and starting to really not care about that fact.

Aaron and I got a Great Dane puppy in December and her name is Penelope. She is awesome and huge and just a great dog. I had to get Willie neutered because he fell madly in love with her about three weeks ago for some reason. It was pretty pathetic watching an eight pound poodle try and get it on with a 50-pound Great Dane...

I'm looking forward to a great rest of the year and hopefully I'll be more inspired to write interesting and witty things like I used to soon...
